Death, and Rebirth of a Server!

We experienced a brief anomaly in the Immaterium yesterday - which had an adverse effect on our server availability for a few hours yesterday..

Apologies if anyone was adversely affected!

I host the back end stuff on Slicehost servers. They were acquired by Rackspace a while ago, and there has been a gradual move to migrate the servers to Rackspace OpenCloud.

Well, yesterday - while I was doing the day job, I clicked the button to migrate everything across to the new OpenStack platform...

Everything went smoothly - except for my Glassfish installation, which I just couldn't couldn't resurrect...

This meant that no data was available between about 11am and 7pm GMT.
In the end it came down to a reinstall, reconfigure and it all came back to life again

Always on a Friday....

Meanwhile - work progresses on the iPhone client!

As ever - if you like the product and have a moment to spare - a positive review is always welcome! I'll reply to the latest kind ones in a new update here shortly!
